Today \u00a0in the Discovery Room the children have been enjoying playing with the Bee Bots robots. They have been developing their technology and navigation skills by learning the positional terms on the Bee Bots e.g the symbols: up, down, left, \u00a0right and green for go.<\/p>\n

The children were trying to direct the Bee Bots onto the first letter of their name on the alphabet mat. They used their numeracy skills to count how many times the Bee Bots moved after pressing each symbol.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\n\"\"<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0

\n\u201c I got it on l\u201d
\n \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201c Its going on e\u201d \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0
\n\u00a0\"\"
\n\u201c I got it on c\u201d

After becoming comfortable with the navigation systems, we decided to do a follow up activity. The children raced the Bee Bots to see if they could push a ball over the finishing line.
\nDuring this the children developed their problem-solving skills by navigating a route and implementing it by pressing the symbols on the Bee bot in order to push the ball over the finish-line.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\n\"\"<\/a>\u00a0
\n \u201c I got the football\u201d
\n\"\"<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201d my one crossed over the line \u201d<\/p>\n

We had so much fun developing our navigation, fine motor, numeracy and literacy skills.
\nWhy not give it a try at home with any electronic games, remote control, or a programmable toy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
